    OK, great. Would you mind emailing the file to me? Then we can analyse it and hopefully get a clue to what the problem is. You have my email address from when you got your activation key.

    Thanks a lot,
    Niels

    You are writing moving the “files” – I only meant the qt.conf file. But maybe that is the one you moved.

    I must admit I am not sure about the WinTab drivers. Maybe somebody else can advice? The WinTab drivers are mentioned a few places elsewhere in this forum. Try searching for it here.

    Hi Brian, – yes, the cursor is hard to see (too transparent). Others have mentioned this too. This has already been fixed and will be included in Alpha 2 (coming out tomorrow).

    Wow, that looks… 🙂

    Thanks for this Fabian. So the lines look like this all the time – never been normal looking?

    Does it happen only with pencil lines – or is it the same with marker and brush?

    Would you mind drawing a few test-lines, save it as an .ap file and email it to me?

    Cheers,
    Niels

    Thanks a lot.

    Yeah, sometimes “Simple Unbroken Sequence” produces the “hold” filenames. This is not supposed to happen – it is a bug that others have found too. It has been fixed and is included in Alpha 2 we release in a day or two.

    Hi Jansen, that’s one hell of a downside. 🙁

    Something to try:

    Elsewhere on this forum people succeeded in fixing similar (maybe) problems by installing WinTab drivers.

    Another possibility: Try moving away (or better: renaming) the qt.conf file. You find it where your AnimationPaper.exe file is (probably in ProgramFiles/AnimationPaper). That forces Animation Paper to use Windows Ink. This is not ideal for other reasons, but perhaps it is the better choice for you.

    Anyway, I have noted this. We’ll see what we can do at our end.

    Thanks for letting me know! Also let me know if some of the above help you in any way.

    Thanks Ramez. Interesting.

    Don’t worry about a screenshot. But one thing:

    What happens if you load the file again? Are you able to reproduce this problem – does it happen again when you try to save it a second time?

    Thanks a lot for your help!

    Hi again Ganbold. Good news! 🙂

    Frederik have worked on this problem today. Animation Paper now detects if the graphics hardware doesn’t support 1D and then uses 2D instead. So this should hopefully solve your problem. This fix will be included in Alpha 2.

    I just hope your hardware will generally be able to run Animation Paper reasonably well. At least one obstacle has hopefully been removed. 🙂

    Please let me know how it goes, when you try Alpha 2 in a few days…

    I hope we can find a solution somehow afterall. We might be able to do a special part of the software that does the needed 1D stuff with the CPU instead of the GPU. This would be an internal automatic feature, so it would work for people in your situation without the need for setting anything up. That’s my hope anyways. It might happen in a following alpha…

    OK, Frederik says it is because of the 1D issue. We are using the GPU for various things including rendering of the drawn lines. We utilise 1D textures (one dimensional. As opposed to 2D or 3D.) Apparently your graphics card do not allow or support that.

    I’m sorry, I do not think there is much we can do about that.

    Glad you like it! 🙂 And thanks.

    Circle and rectangle are examples of tools I have not wanted to add to Animation Paper – because of simplicity and the “analogue” / nontechnical / hand drawn style of it. But I am listening. So maybe at some point in a future release it will make sense.

    Hi Patrick, you can use the option “Simple Unbroken Sequence (clone info lost)” to do exactly that.

    Or you could just use “Exclude Clones” which skips the clones – i.e. makes “holes” in the numbered sequence. Some software will then fill the holes in with copies (like making the clones again). This is good for keeping track of what to color. No need to color the same drawing many times, just because it is repeated, if you see what I mean.

    Very helpful Ganbold! Thanks! I will show this to Frederik (programmer).

    Hi Ganbold, Animation Paper should run on most newer systems. I don’t think it is your hardware that is to blame for the strange thing that happens on your son’s Win10. Also reusing the key is not the problem.

    What I am noticing is that Animation Paper apparently has approved your key, but never shows the main Animation Paper window for some weird reason. Do you have an extra monitor connected? Could it be that Animation Paper opens up on another desktop or on a disabled monitor or something. Somewhere our of view?

    Is it running if you check in Task Manager?
